An exceptional and truly unique period semi detached cottage, dating back to the 1860s, occupying a substantial plot on one of Runcorn’s most prestigious roads adjacent to Heath Park & Runcorn Hill nature reserve.

The welcoming entrance hallway leads through to a spacious through lounge and dining area, beautifully enhanced by original exposed beams and period features. A further dual aspect 24ft lounge provides a wonderful reception space, with an abundance of natural light creating a bright and inviting environment.

At the heart of the home is an impressive open plan kitchen, dining and living area. Designed perfectly for modern family life and entertaining, the space features a central island, striking ceiling lantern and bifold doors opening onto the gardens, creating a seamless connection between the inside and outside. A useful utility room and WC complete the ground floor.

To the first floor are four generous bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for family living, alongside a contemporary shower room. Two of the bedrooms beautifully showcase the property’s heritage, featuring exposed brickwork that highlights the original character and period features of this unique home.

The property has also been thoughtfully upgraded, benefiting from solar panels with battery storage, helping to improve energy efficiency. Further quality features include engineered oak flooring throughout, an oak staircase and oak internal doors, complementing the traditional character of the cottage while adding a contemporary feel.

Externally, the property continues to impress. Set within a substantial plot, the beautifully maintained and immaculate gardens provide an attractive private setting with plenty of space for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. The property further benefits from two separate driveways to the front and rear, providing extensive off-road parking.

Adding to the versatility is the detached one bedroom annexe, offering independent accommodation and making this property particularly well suited to multi-generational living, dependent relatives, guests, a home office or potentially as an additional income opportunity, subject to any necessary consents.
